This is seriously a very bad company. It invented round up then invented a soy bean to withstand the effects of round up. Round up is sprayed onto the soybean crops to control weeds. Do you want to feed your family anything that has been "treated" with round up while it was growing in the...
Your set up looks good! I rubber band kitchen towels over the openings of my fermenting containers. I have not one, but two shedding St. Bernards who also sling drool and what nots about the kitchen when they walk through shaking their heads. If I have not died yet from contamination, you...

I didn't know other cultures had a trinity of their own, thanks for sharing!
Hattie, that is a wonderful idea about...
What do you fry them in? I've used EX.V.O.O. and it was too strong of a flavor, it overpowered the sage.
I love to tuck wads of fresh sage under the skin of a chicken with butter chunks and then rub that baby with more butter then roast it up. I will also tuck more sage into the cavity of the...
